They wanted better relations with Libya so they could take their ...i mean trade with them for their oil. He hasn't got long to live, and him dying in gaol is not going to bring back the people he helped kill. I think that the government though he might be of use, so they sent him back. I'm not...

I agree, who gets to make those rights? Someone had to set guidelines, because everyone was really stuffing it up. The UN have just made it simple, guidelines that everyone 'can' follow, and what is seen to make living life better. When it comes down to it, rights are what you can give other...

And you are blinded by your own pride and ego. How can you begin to learn anything new if you tell people to 'shut up'. This is obvious proof or how blind you are, because you have so little a grasp of what it means to be homosexual. You think everything must revolve around materialism for...

You'd die for a flag?? It shouldn't matter what the flag looks like, but more focused on what it represents

beware of the strange place

i want some individualism... though there is still the fact that we are apart of the commonwealth Y-Y Lets just have the southern cross, with a cool border or something

My understanding is that marrigage is the ultimate form of expressing love and commitement. Its not about being allowed to have it, its about beign able to have the power to give it

How the heck did this thread get put in 'light and offbeat'?? That is really sad, and i think that the national outcry is just. The fact that the Afgan parliament had to pass this 'quitely' is proof of what they knew would have huge outcry from foreign nations. It just sounds like the man...

But hurray for Aust. caving in

But to have someone to make a judgment on you for something you cant change? It's like saying that a schoolyard bully has no affect on their victims when they call them names. More to the fact that because of religion, there are still those who see it wrong (because it goes against the nature...

I like it, really it is just taking that extra step forward. We already have so many agreements that make us like one country anyways. Also, anything to change our stupid flag

~Sigh

A human being, no better, no worse

That is just the thing though, who are you to 'accept' or 'not accept'. That is an interpretation (but i wont get into interpretations too much), and its fine if you as in individual follow that part of the bible (as in dont practice those acts), but who is anyone to say to others, "stop what...

adam and eve didnt exist

I agree that there are valuable lessons to be learn from the bible, but they are hidden under all this other mumbo jumbo that some people are willing to believe anything that comes out of the bible. I'm lucky to be brought up in such a diverse family that has desensitised me from discrimination...

If there was a way then rights wouldnt be abused. That is what makes rights so hard to work with, because it depends on individuals. Sure they can be educated and such, but in the end it has to be the individual who allows others to have rights. But if we all work together, the world would be...

Yes they can. I'm friends with a great deal of males, and we are like brothers. I wouldnt think anything beyond friendship with them

The thing is that it is easy it adopt rights for yourself. The only work is working towards acknowledging others rights and freedoms. The reason why it has had to be institutionalised is because that not all people care about and repsect others rights, thinking they have a right to ignore others...

lol....no
